Turn off traction control and floor it, that should just about do it.

Yeah, you've got a GT, just floor it. For added expression, put one foot on the brake at the same time, front discs hold, rear wheels make sweet music!

Nah, you won't hurt her, when you are breaking her in, you mainly just don't want to maintain your RPM for a long while. So hold off on the long road trips or at least vary your speed every now and then on the long trips.

Yes, it can be done- well and often.
I do not have the luxury of traction control-- When I took Eleanor in to have the shaker looked at, I was showing off to the salesman a little bit....Took her right and lit em up good.
Get on the gas good and floor it good......Trust me on it.

(Hades, I was a pro at laying it down in the olds)

Hey Buddy.... I'm glad to see you finally got your Silver GT.
I hope you like it....
Take the traction control off.
Put your foot on the brake... get rpms up to about 4-grand... or to the point of the wheels spinning... keep your foot on the gas.... while you let go of the brake.
Then let it ride.
By the way you and I have alot more in common than our cars... TVSTANG.
I was in your neck of the woods last weekend... I have good friends at 2 other shops in town.... I hope you understand.
